Car Film Application
In high-temperature weather, applying car film is essential, especially for newly purchased vehicles, which require special attention to installing explosion-proof films. Also known as solar films, explosion-proof films are designed to block direct sunlight from affecting the vehicle and its occupants. Ordinary explosion-proof films generally provide functions such as sunlight protection, UV resistance, and cooling effects, while high-quality ones offer superior performance.
Air Conditioning Disinfection
During hot weather, the air conditioning system is likely the most frequently used feature by car owners. Prolonged use of air conditioning can easily lead to malfunctions. Many owners find that the air conditioning seems ineffective after getting into the car, which may indicate a refrigerant shortage. In general, insufficient refrigerant is one of the main causes of air conditioning failure. Next, check for leaks. Most dry tanks have a glass observation hole, through which the flow of bubbles can help initially assess the system’s operation. Finally, inspect the level of refrigeration lubricating oil. Additionally, as bacteria thrive in summer, regular disinfection of the car’s air conditioning system is recommended.
Interior Environment Cleaning
Under the scorching summer sun, prolonged direct sunlight and high temperatures can easily cause the car’s exterior paint to age and fade. Generally, applying a layer of car glaze can solve these problems. Regular “sauna” maintenance for the vehicle is a crucial part of summer car care.
Cooling Precautions
In extreme heat, avoid driving for extended periods and take timely breaks during trips. When parking, choose shady and ventilated areas whenever possible; if conditions permit, open the engine hood to dissipate heat. If the temperature gauge needle points to the high-temperature zone, stop the car immediately to “cool down” and allow the engine to gradually reduce in temperature. In necessary cases, you can pour cold water over the radiator, but be careful not to wet the electrical circuits. During maintenance, ensure that the fan belt does not come into contact with oil to prevent slipping.
Tire Inspection
When driving on high-temperature roads, tire pressure tends to increase. Before setting off, regularly check the electrical system for short circuits, leaks, or loose plugs; inspect the fuel line connections for leaks and the exhaust pipe for abnormal backfiring, and repair any issues immediately. Ensure the battery’s ventilation holes are unobstructed. Summer road temperatures often exceed 70°C, and if car tires travel on high-temperature roads for extended periods, internal tire pressure will rise. If there are damages or weak spots on the tires, a blowout is likely to occur.
